BC 7s--Sevenfest 2011

[sevenron]

The date for Sevenfest 2011 is Saturday July 9th.

 

The location is 2298 Chapman Way, North Vancouver, BC, V7H 1W1

 

The arrival and start time are flexible, anytime after 9:00am. The official start time is 11:00am.

 

The agenda: The first part is intended to be a car show with a chance for members of the public to come by and see the cars as well as a chance for the 7 owners to mingle and look at other cars.

 

During this time hot dogs and snacks will be served.

 

At 1:00pm we will head off on scenic roads well suited to our cars. It's a fun route with lots of photo op time for the cars underway.

 

If you're not on the "BC Sevens" list, contact me and I'll add you. The purpose of the list is to be able to contact 7 owners for this type of event, now and for future events.

Sevenfest 2011

 

 

 

Open to Sevens of all types

 

 

 

All other types of Lotus become honorary Sevens for the day and are welcome

 

 

 

Reminder: if you haven’t already let me know if you’re attending email me at: ronpayne7 at gmail dot com

 

Update: I have obtained, at great personal expense, the recipe for the PNEs world famous caramelized fried onions. This was obtained by much personal groveling. The gourmet hotdogs will be accompanied by generous portions of carmalized onions, but only to those who let me know ahead of time that they’re attending. :

 

A writer from Kitcar magazine is attending. Anyone having 7 related items that they want to sell can bring them, I’ll set up a table if needed. Local newspapers will be contacted. If you have a card for your windshield that gives some basic details of the type of 7 it is, bring it.

 

Pray for sunshine

 

 

 

When: July 9th, 2011

 

Where: 2298 Chapman Way,

North Van., BC

 

Time: Nominally the start time is 11:00 am but if you show up early that’s OK

The first two hours are “meet and greet”, have a hot dog etc., and have a little “show n’ shine” for the public. No charge for the lunch. Bring other munchies if you like.

 

The drive starts at 1:00 pm. It’s a scenic route with a couple of photo ops. I was considering naming the drive part “Under the Volcano” Anyone figuring out why gets the first hot dog. A fun part will be visiting beautiful downtown Deep Cove, our own version of Carmel-by-the-Sea. One road in to a round about and then out the same road. The street is lined with sidewalk cafes and tourists. Should be lots of smiling, waving and photos. We then head up Mt. Seymour to the lookout for a final photo op.

Special thanks to Ron and Michele for hosting another Sevenfest. It was my first time and enjoyed the day and rubbing shoulders with other 7 owners and want-to-be owners. I will leave it to Ron to give the overall count and some photos.

Thanks for posting the photos Chris. Some good shots of some colourful cars. They make a parking lot of ordinary cars look boring.

I missed last year's sevenfest (2011) in Vancouver. Are there any plans to do it again this year?

You lucky buggers. It will be 5 years before I can take part in that... that's when I get to move back home. Of course if I still lived in Van, I would not be able to afford a car, let alone the Ayseven.
